So I made Powerseller status...

...whatever it means or gives me. But one thing I did notice on my listings when I first viewed my account, after noticing the new status, I could see how many people have viewed each one of my listings. But now that has gone.


What did I do? Sorry for the dumb q, I just know how to sell the goods and have been used to how it usually was and looked.


 


Thanks.

Hi mcopt,


 


Powerseller comes & goes, it depends on how much you sell within a certain period of time...& usually drops off if your sales do.  It doesn't mean all that much, it is the Trusted Seller that is more important !!


 


Re being able to see how many have viewed your items are you referring to EACH INDIVIDUAL Listing, as in when you click on your own listing you can see a number showing how many have clicked on it ?


 


If yes is the answer at some stage you've clicked on the COUNTER.


 


You can have one in EVERY listing, you just have to CHOOSE it.


 


When doing up a listing [if via ebay direct] you will find it somewhere around the area of No Of Days Listing For - Duratio Of Listing...just click on the Counter & select RETRO - Hidden [only you see the number, not viewers] Or Basic style counter.


 


If turbo listing go to the very bottom of the page & you will see Thank You For Stopping By [or similar] click on that & then up comes the counters, choose your style.


 


Good luck, sales are all over the place, quiet one week, great the next !

Thanks for your reply firstly . I think today is the first day I have this powerseller status as I have never seen this before. As for seeing how many ppl have view my listings. I first saw this on the Summary page where you can see all your listings together. It was actually next to where you see the watchers and bids section on the summary page. It had views, watchers and then bids.


Just stumped me thats all.

Being a PS'er gives you access to the Power Sellers Board which is probably the only benefit of being a PS'er:-)  There's a wealth of information to be gleaned from the Board, and I'm constantly amazed at the things I learn from others:-D


 


PS  Generally speaking it is a user friendly Board most of the time;-)

As a seller you have access to Selling Manager, at least. There are many tweaks in what is displayed, one of which allows you to see how many views your listings have.


 


However I really don't understand your concern. I much prefer sales to views. The more views on an unsold item, the more chance there is a reason it's an unsold item.


 


Okay, there is a perfect reason for being able to see views - you can see what items have issues.

Hehe, not really a concern. More confusion, as it was there and then it wasn't and I didn't do a thing. Just confused on why.

Like Dave said, Selling Manager allows you to see the number of views for each listing if you don't want to have a counter.


 


Not sure why that option would be removed. Maybe it reverted to some previous screen and you just need to switch it back again. I do know that the regular MyEbay Summary page only has watchers, which is why I got Selling Manager (which is free, unless you want the Pro version)

Have a look in Account > Subscriptions and there should be an option to join Selling Manager from there.

Selling Manager is free for every seller. Those of us foolish enough to have a store get Selling Manager Pro free.


 


If you do subscribe to selling manager, (or Pro) if you stop selling make sure you unsubscribe. I'm not sure about SM, but if you close a store and don't unsubscribe to SMP, the $9.95 monthly subscription will kick in.
